Is anyone thinking of ordering this case? I think it just came out because yesterday it said it was "coming soon."

I already have it.
Fits good, not as great as my white Ultra Thin. The added top & bottom can move a little.
Also, it tends to get "oily" or "greasy" from my finger use. Same thing can be said on the screen protector that is included. It fits well, but the to attract the oil from my fingers.
The cristal look is way cooler that the white ultra thin. But the touch feel is not as good.

I agree, I have it too. Looks really cool in the render and was looking forward to it as my favorite case but it shows fingerprints and oil much easier than the ultra thin. Also, feels a little bit slippery. It looks a little funny on my black nexus but I'm sure it will look better on a white one.

What is the best screen protector for good clarity and can show across the screen very nicely and decent stretch protection although the corning glass is scratch resistant. I have the flex vs right now and there is a big scratch in the center of the screen that's annoying and has rainbow effect on the whole bottom left side that is quite annoying on white screens. I have the nano clear from the neo hybrid car I might try it is the nano clear good?

I love the zagg HD screen protectors. I may be a bit bias though. Work at best buy so my discount on them is huge.

if you want a screen protector that doesnt scratch easily like your flex did - stay away from zagg. Look at the spigen products like you are. The one that would be least likely to scratch is the ultra crystal
Hi I bought a pack of these and have to say I am really impressed. They fit well and are ultra clear.

I have the nano clear I'll look at those if it scratched through the screen protector the corning glass I would think would save it.

I ordered the "next generation" protector from Bestskinsever.com, on sale for $5. I had one on an old clickwheel ipod from 2006 that was still going strong, and the new generation promised less orange peel. I have to say, I HATE screen protectors, but I'm liking this one. Individual holes are cut for everything, no U channel cutouts on top & bottom like the Zagg HD. The orange peel is minimal, and it's smooth as can be, feels like glass. I was really expecting the crappy, rubbery, finger drag feel that wet protectors are known for. I'd definitely order it again.
Here is what I orderd...according to Amazon it was shipped, hoping to get this in the next few days...

Xoskins works nice.. wet application but very little orange peel. Distortion is minimal too. Comes in normal and case fit which leaves a tiny bit on the edges so cases don't peel it up.
I'd buy another one.

just got bored surfing the web and thought i would see if speck made nexus 5 cases yet. and i guess i lucked out !!!!
http://www.speckproducts.com/google...ses-and-covers/candyshell-for-lg-nexus-5.html
downfall is they are 35 bucks. i was hoping for $25. well if anyone gets one post up what you think of it. i want to know if these have any issues with the power button not having any click feel to it and or easy to press by accident
expensive !!
they are over priced ..
thats my opinion .
Finally! Now speck and tech21 have released cases and imo, they are the best brands out there!

they look nice, but those colors are horrendous, except for the blue and white one. would love to know why they are priced that way when it seems they are made out of the same material as any other dual layered case.
if they ever go on sale ill pick one up.

Speck always over charges for their cases. They cater to the rich stupid iPhone people. And I agree the case colors they choose suck. I wanted a plain black one.
I do like the white and blue one but not for 35 bucks
Those color options are terrible.

Why couldn't they have used more standard colors..

This case is great for side and corner impacts, but the small lip hinders its face flat resistance.
My friend has this case on his sgs3, and I saw his phone drop onto our tile office floor and crack the screen, while in the case!
The floor did have a slightly raised edge, due to it being tile, but nothing a good case shouldn't have protected against.

I ordered this case and it should be here tomorrow. Sounds like it may continue using my Ballistic Aspira case if this one doesn't offer much protection.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
^ sorry if my post seemed discouraging. I can only speak for the experiences I've seen with this case in an s3, which is 2 years old.
If the lip is a decent height, things should be fine if it falls facewards. Back and sides should be fine because of the thick plastic/rubber the case is made from. Let us k know how it fists!

Review?
I searched but most people had the hybrid case. I'm looking at the tpu one.
I'm mostly concerned with whether or not the case fits snuggly and not loose. I got mixed reviews on the Amazon page with some saying fits well, others saying loose.
Thx
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
Yeah it's pretty good. But mine was a tiny bit loose. I had a black one.

Not really, it was actually kind of a good loose. Like it wasn't like other TPU cases that try to squeeze the phone to death, I'd say it's a relaxed fit.
EDIT: Another tip, the logo on the back can be scratched off. Which was perfect because I didn't want any kind of branding.
It was the first case I bought for the ONE.... Fit great!!!
.... The only issue I had was that the thin trim that is above the volume rocker stretched out some and became annoying really fast

I like the look of these. I wonder if they'll scratch the corners up like the Ringke does ...
$30 and it doesn't even say Nexus on it?!?!
Come on Google... It's basically a Ringke Slim or Spigen Ultra Fit for more than 3x the price. You could of at least slapped on the Nexus branding.

I actually prefer the Google branding. I don't think I'll ever encounter another person in real life who will know what "Nexus" refers to. Anyways, these cases look to resemble the crappy Spigen/Ringke hard cases, and not the incredible sandpaper ones on eBay. We'll have to see who decides to drop $30 and put up a review.
Looks too similar to the lg thin cases. I'm surprised they'd even put these out.

Only thing is that the LG Hardshell protects more, the top is not covered at all with this case and the bottom is also less covered. I don't understand why they try to sell this product for more money with less protection/functionality. Must be a mistake
Waiting for the review, Wondering if the material is matte or like slipperty specially for white one.
I'd buy this if I live in the US. I'm a google fanboy.

To me, these cases appear to be more flexible than the more rigid Ringke cases for example, judging by what I see in the video posted above.

I bought the older black Google Nexus 5 OEM case with the "Nexus" logo on the back. I got it on eBay for last week for like $14.00, but it kinda sucks. I shouldn't say it sucks, but definitely not my style of case. I prefer as minimal as possible, where this case has much more bulk and a thicker lip that goes over the glass. Another thing I don't like is the volume & power buttons are covered. They aren't too hard to press, but it's different for sure. I knew I should have bought the LG minimal case. I really liked the pictures and reviews. I got caught up in wanting the "Nexus" logo on the back. I was blinded!

I'm on the fence because it seems like it adds a bit of bulk. I used to have a Spigen case for my old Nexus 5 and loved it (great quality product) so I'm very tempted to get this.
But I love the size and the original case that comes with the phone really keeps the phone slim. Decisions, decisions...lol

I'm with you on this one, don't get me wrong I'm sure its a truly beautiful case as they usually are from spigen but looking at the pictures I see that it does add that unwanted bulk for me.
I'm actually finding the opx case that's shipped with it is quite nice.

Mine came a couple of days ago. It looks amazing and feels great in the hand, as the device is so thin and light the added bulk doesn't make it feel any more bulky plus it actually feels a lot more solid to hold. My only disappointment is how big it looks from the front, but it isn't too bad and I suspect over time I'll get use to it.
My favourite part of the case is that they've done a great job with the slider cut-out, I struggled to use the switch in the case that comes with the phone but with this it's nice and easy!

I received yesterday my red silicone case from Oneplus. I would like to know if anyone knows how to make it less sticky because when i put it in my pocket it collects litter...
By the way i'm thinking about buying a Spigen case but the postage from Spigen is more expensive than the case. Anyone in the UK that can buy one from ebay (£5,99) and then send it to me in Portugal? The cost to send it by RoyalMail International Standard is £2.45. Of course i would send the money first by bank transfer.
Regards
Received mine two days ago; I love it! The case that came with the phone was too flimsy and a little loose. It was basically there just so the rear glass doesn't get fingerprints. It offered very little to no protection. I'm loving the Spigen case as it gives a much better grip, and isn't very bulky either. The phone is too slim for my taste, anyway. I prefer a better grip any day. With the Spigen case, the phone looks like an oversized iPod touch. (Source: my friend's iPod touch.) So, not bad at all.
it make the phone HUGE
awesome. love it. will definitely buy one. thanks for you video review:good:
